Stellar reviews for Brown Boys Swim, with specific mentions for Sita's movement work

Everything is choreographed so well by movement director Sita Thomas that each setting had its own distinct vibe, and each character their own instantly recognisable gait.

**** All That Dazzles


The tempo was phenomenal, with fantastic movement direction from Sita Thomas. With slick and swaying transitions, the actors moved the set themselves.

***** A Young(ish) Perspective

 

This is extremely effective and is coupled with slick transitions by movement director Sita Thomas. With nothing more than a moveable platform and two benches, we are transported to endless locations including the gym and the shopping centre, which ensures the production remains fast-paced, energetic, and engaging. 

 Voice Mag ****

 

Hoggarth, and his movement director Sita Thomas, create mesmeric scenes in the pool, the boys clinging on to the sides of the tiled pool walls (designer James Button) or climbing on benches, the invisible water splashing loudly (sound designer Roshan Gunga) as the boys appear to float in the pool.

Also interesting for students is the staging of the ‘transitions’ between scenes – simple but effective choreography illustrates how valuable the staging of movement from one moment to another can be.
